I still feel the need to bless your brother. What an incredible human and uncle to do this for you and your children. Blessings for you and your family too
I bless your dear brother Bri every time I see the big gorgeous home he got for you. It makes such a difference!!! HappyHappy Mother’s Day!!!
That's likely rollie pollies that are eating your broccoli like that. I had them decimate my green bean plants one year before I realized what it was that was eating them. Hopefully you have luck getting rid of them, or at least giving them something else to eat on rather than your broccoli plants! Your garden looks amazing though! Keep up the good work! 💗
Yes. Diatomaceous eath will help, a more diverse garden patch too
Just making a suggestion here, so please don't take offense. When planting small plants it is easier on the little roots if we make a hole first with a stick, a dibble or even our finger. Forcing little plants root first into the soil with no preparation breaks the roots and traumatizes the plant, which may cause the plant to die or the plant may not develop correctly. I used to work in a nursery in transplanting seedlings. It was crucial to make sure the dibble holes were the correct size before placing the seedling gently in them and pinching the holes closed over them. You will harvest a lot of vegetables this summer from such a wonderful garden! Happy planting!
Yes, but Bri is holding the camera with her other hand. I'm sure she knows this as I have seen her plant starts in her farm garden on videos quite a while ago.
There are actually some plants that prefer to be literally stuck straight into the earth.
@@crystalerdman3455 lol
@@ciaobella8963 Unless she has 3 hands, that is not the case. There are two hands planting,
@@Ruth58969 Exactly. That is what I'm saying.
I’m really loving you! Bri. There is a peace and happiness about you now that before I never saw. I’m glad that you are still filming content. It’s lovely to watch.
I agree❣️
Many blessings.
I love each and every visit with you and your family. I am an 80 year old great grandmother and family is everything to me. My husband of 63 years is in hospital, we’ve had some struggles but Bri, you just wouldn’t believe all the Devine intervention we have had from day 1!! God is so good, sees us through all theses struggles eh? You bet. You and yours are just the ray of sunshine I needed today.🤗🤗💖💖🙏🙏
The little snippets we get of how you teach your kids in everyday moments are so beautiful. I'm so thankful there are parents like you in the world.
Bri, try taking cinnamon and sprinkle it around the root area! It is great to mess up the bugs senses. Even rodents dot like it but run away. It doesn't hurt your plants either. You may need to repeat after rains.
You should be able to transplant carrots, but make a little hole so root has freedom. I live in Alaska and we have to start alot of things in the house and then transplant out the end of May first of June. Pray it works for you!
Watching you rise from the ashes just blesses my heart. Im sure every day is hard but girl u are doing it. You are showing others there is hope and they will find there way also. ❤
The attack on the broccoli is the cutworm.
Like 99% of the other comments, I am engaged in your sharing of your garden and skills. The fine detailed handling of the plants was so enlightening - like being there with you. When you want to learn you want to be up-close and say, just don't tell me, SHOW ME! And you did!
Bless you and your family.
I saw a vid where the man cut plastic straws into 2" pieces, then cut the straw piece down the side. Unfurl it and wrap around the stem, making sure you slide the straw down about 1" into the soil. Just like they use the plastic "tubes" around young trees. Something your kids may be able to help with.🙂
So give us some tips on growing Cilantro !!! I have never had luck with it :) Love your garden You are doing a great job.
We call them slaters in Australia ( think you call them rolly polly) they ring bark my seedlings . They like to hide in the dark so they might be under mulch or tarps.
You could try planting some Pyrethrum Daisy plants in the garden around your Broccoli plants (and that whole "cabbage" family) ... be sure to get the one with the Latin name Tanacetum Coccineum also known as a Painted Daisy - Robinson Mix ... thisplant will also repel nemotodes, leaf hoppers, harlequin bugs, spider mites, cabbage white butterflies & cabbage moths (and worms) ... the daisy is NOT harmful to pollinators and plant between every other plant ... I hope this helps ...
I agree with others that the culprit is cutworms. We used to use cans around each plant, then went to paper cups, but now we make newspaper folded into circles and taped to stay together. I use these on my broccoli, collards, tomatoes and peppers as our cut worms seems to like all of these. I have not had any problems since planting each plant with a collar of newspaper. Fortunately I can make these newspaper circles any size I need for some of the larger plants I have started. I like the newspaper as it degrades over the summer and the cutworms only seem to be a problem in the spring to early summer.
I think it’s ants eating the broccoli stems at the dirt line. If it was cut worms I think you’d see leaf damage as well. Either way, some DE around the stems should help. I absolutely love seeing your garden flourishing and the joy it brings you! ❤
What is DE?
Diatemetrious Earth. Get the "food grade kind"
DE or diatomaceous earth kills insects. Unfortunately it also kills pollinators including bees 🐝
I wonder if the damage is from voles or moles,,,,
I agree with this. I had issues with ants and it wiped out my plants just like what happening here.
I agree, whatever is eating the stems would be slowed down or eradicated with d.e.
Bri we call them Spring Onions over here 9 they grow all year long) & yes harvesting the tops & leaving the base in they regrow stronger- I started my Spring Onion bed from store bought bunch of spring onions I bought for a salad - cut the bottom part (with roots) & rooted them in a dish of water- I now have a 4ft x 4ft bed of amazing spring onions. They have been going for over 7years now. Cheers Denise- Australia
Hi i asked a friend about your broccoli they recommended that you put some foil around the base of your broccoli as it many be being eaten by pill bugs, not sure if that helps but it can't harm.
DE for the broccoli. May be cut worms or may be pill bugs.
Sending Love❤❤❤ from Philippines
That plant damage looks like potato bug/pill bug. When I grow amaranth, if I don’t preventatively treat them, they look just like that on the stem. They eat a ring around the bottom while the rest of the plant looks great.
Your green is looking lovely. Pick up the weed mat by the broccoli and check for grubs. Prob more so in the evening quite late. Pop some empty small dishes of beer sunken by those broccoli through the night and see if it attracts any grubs of some sort. They can be attracted to it then drown.
Cutworms are the larvae of certain species of moths from the Noctuidae family. These pests chew through the base of young broccoli plants, cutting them off and killing them.
That's what we love most about SoilFamily Expo, spending the day at Savannah Children's Museum to teach and inspire the children and parents about the importance of homesteading/gardening and how much fun it can be. So important to pass this skill on to the youth ❤ they may not stick with it but they will come back to it one day🙏🏾
I hope to get to next year's Expo! Yes, very important to pass on this knowledge and skill!
@@RobertasArtisticAdventures We hope to see you next year SoilSista, we love and appreciate you 💖
Wow, the garden looks great! Great job, Bri and family & friends! 🥰👍🏾💯🙏🏽
My thoughts about the stems on the broccoli were maybe cutworms, as stated before or mice. They need to nibble on anything to keep their teeth shorter since they continue to grow. Just my thoughts, I hope you figure it out, I am also a big fan of broccoli.
God bless your journey, Beautiful and Strong Bri!
I love how your kids entertain themselves without sitting in front of the tv. So good for them!!!
Hope your neighbors are enjoying the beauty of your garden!!!😊
I was wondering what the suburban neighborhood thought of all this ❤
Bri. Try sprinkling red pepper on your plants to stop animals or other things like slugs etc that chew
It's a beautiful place to spend time. You have a wonderful garden, and you are an amazing woman. God bless you
Bri, you are amazing. You have embraced your new life with such openness. The kids are happy and thriving. Your garden looks great! (Wish mine was that good). You have given me and so many others, the will to keep going
Although your plants are a little large for it, what’s going on with your broccoli plants reminds me of dampening off. That always happens at the soil level. It affects the stem. And then they just fall over. I don’t know. It’s weird though.
Cut worms are your problem. put collars of cardboard or tin foil around the stems when you plant the starts.
Yes, you can replant the carrots you pull up. May not be 100% straight but they'll grow!! 👌
What a lovely day, thank you for sharing!
ANSWER: I just saw on UA-cam yesterday the reason for the bottom of you broccoli! It’s that bug that is gray, oval, many legs & about 1/8” long. I don’t know the name. The lady didn’t pull the plant out she put that blue electric tape around it, put the soil up to the bottom of that tape & said that area would harden over time & then she would take the tape off. I’m so loving your attitude and creativity.
❤ Adie from CT
Are they called slaters. In Australia that's what we call them and they are a pain
Interesting! I will look into it. Do you remember where you saw it?
Looks like rolly pollie/pill bug damage. Sluggo plus kills them.
@@Brifromscratch rolly pollies here i saw where you put tin foil around the stem to protect from them eating them
@Bri From Scratch it also looks like cut worm damage, peppermint oil can help prevent additional damage , your garden is looking fantastic
Hi Bri, you might have mice ( or rats) chewing off the broccoli - that might also be the reason why some of your carrots were missing. If I have the problem, I keep a net over ( so the birds don´t get in) and set traps.
Good morning beautiful SoilSista and Fam❤️
I had something happen like that with the broccoli, and it was witchetty grubs, here in aus, or basically, beetle larvae, going around and munching as they please in the root/stalk zones, any pesticide for root eating pests, or an equivalent non-pesticide alternative if you so choose, may help.
14:36 Our brassicas look like this in the spring and summer! Our bugs are terrible and they beat the roots, stems and leaves of our plants... 🥴 So out with the fall/winter crop and in with the summer we almost skip spring here. It's sometimes in the 90's in the day and 70's at night
Use a solo or plastic cup top to make a collar around squash, cabbage and broccoli plants to keep cut worms at bay. I use about the top three inches of the cup.
I have the same problem with my broccoli and cabbage every year. I found it was ants causing the problem. What I did was flood the plants with water for a couple of days. All of them because they will move on to the next plant. Good luck. Garden is beautiful!
I had a similar problem with my chili plants. It was ants! The plants were doing great and one night the ant batallion came and chew up the stalks.... Perhaps that's what happened.
I have problems with cutworms and squash vine borers a friend told me to get that stretchy athletic tape to put around the base of the plant. It will stretch as the plant grows and keep the insects off.
If your grass was previously treated with chemicals (fertilizer or grub control) when you stop treating the grubs and moles (they eat grubs) will be worse for a while because it was an artificial environment. It make take time for your garden soil to adapt and you may get more pests in the mean time.
Look up cutworms .. I’m in central Virginia and that’s what gets some of mine. Your garden looks great for a first year garden!!!
Cutworms are general feeders that can cause a lot of damage to a wide variety of crops in your home garden, including broccoli, kale, and cauliflower.
that looks like cut worm. a little DE at the base, under the leafs, AFTER water, because water makes the DE not work. should help.
I love to save my carrot greens when I thin carrots to add to salads
As a gardener who loves digging in the dirt, do you think if you just taped the bottom of the broccoli stem to see if some could recover? I have done this on other veggies and sometimes you can save others not. I hate pulling out established plants. One year my tomatoes had a similar problem. I taped several up and actually survived! In meantime your garden looks fabulous!!!! Jw how neighbors are reacting to the large scale garden beds and the black plastic? As gardeners are aware until they take off sometimes it can be unsightly but we know what is to come. Living in a community with a neighbor in plain view I sure hope no complaints from your HOA. Happy planting, weeding, and sowing and eventually harvesting!!!
Hi not sure if this will help you but I had an pest issue. Sprinkle diatomaceous earth all around the roots and anywhere you see them. In short time any insect will be gone. And it's non-toxic so it will not hurt kids it is not a poison .
Put a heavy duty hook in a portable drill and loop one end of your net on the hook. Start the drill slowly and you'll have twisted net instantly.
I think cut worms. It looks like the same damage I had. What I did was stuck little sticks on either side of the base and that stops them from being able to snip the plants. I hope this helps. You are such a delight. God bless you always ~Lisa
I have seen similar damage on stems from slugs.
Concerning your broccoli. Isn't it the flee beetle? Internet says:'While flea beetles love to eat the leaves of the broccoli first, they will also go for the stems once they mature'. Update. It looks like a plant that is victim of the cabbage fly- larva.
The garden is looking amazing guys. I'm sooo jealous of the sweet peas because that's something I struggle to grow in South GA. I always seem to plant them too early or too late lol. That really looks like cut worm damage on the broccoli. Oh, and
I've had great success with transplanting carrots.
Good luck!
Our broccoli started looking not so good. My husband watered them with fish poop fertilizer yesterday. 😂 smells awful but does wonders for our plants
Lovely Bri! I’m glad you were able to get so much done in the garden, it’s often hard to accomplish so much with the little ones needing attention. Thank you for the reminder to take things as they come and not be anxious. I was feeling a bit overwhelmed, planning to take my two granddaughters to play together today while thinking of all the things in the garden that still need to be planted. The weather here is turning very hot, but you’re right, there is still time to get things in.
Thank you for sharing your potato wisdom. I'm on my 3rd year of potatoes and appreciated your sharing.
Possibly cutworms on your broccoli? Make a little collar of foil or cardboard and put around the bottom of the stem when you plan them.
I can't believa how good your garden looks. It grows so fast! If I plant it takes months for mine to look like that. Probably colder climat here but still.
Thanks for the gardening videos. This is my first year with a big garden and I find your videos among the best for a beginner gardener. You explain things in such a straight forward manner and I don't feel bogged down by too much info like with some other channels. Thanks for being you 😊 I really like the direction your channel has taken.
Your garden looks beautiful. Sorry about the broccolis
Everything looks great.
Hi Bri, I think your broccoli problem might be wirestem (Rhizoctonia Solani) hope this helps. God bless you and yours.
Cut worms and I have heard they don’t go very deep so if you take a solo cup and burry it with it in it as a collar for the plant you can avoid the loss. Funny you were eating the greens of the pea plant. In a video I did recently I was thinking about it ;) now I know that I will likely enjoy them! You are a bit ahead of me as I’m in Iowa
Hi I'm from England we have been married for fifty years and my husband has always grown vegetables but this year he has gone mad in the garden and our front lawn is a fruit orchard we have many apple trees eaters and cookers plums cherries we also have strawberries and raspberries rhubarb and we don't have a huge garden but it amazes me how much we grow so good luck with your big plot love your kiddies my are grown up and got one child each I only had two boys take care xxx
Your garden is beautiful. Much love and blessings for you and your family ❤️✝️
If you planted the pea seeds on the other side of the hog panel, would they have grown up the panel easier? Seems they would have been reaching out due to the hill, but right onto the fence that way. You have so many good tips for gardening. A day alone is like magic, right?
There is a disease that affects broccoli known as wirestem. Might read a bit on it to see if it matches.
Just fyi. Good Storing onions usually have much stronger flavor. Many blessings everyone.
Bri look up ants girdleing broccoli and see if that looks similar to what your experiencing. I had a lot of issues with ants the first few years in my garden that i converted from lawn,but it gets better
Love watching your videos. God's blessings to you all.
Luv your garden Bri! Im putting my veg plants out this weekend now that we are safe (fingers crossed) from any more killing frosts in Piney Creek NC.
Hey, Sparta, here! 👋
Thanks for the taco idea😄 I had some precooked in the freezer ground beef I just took out for tacos tonight. Your garden looks so beautiful, you definitely have a talent for it. Can't wait to see some flowers growing too🌷🌻🌹❤
Garden looks amazing. Praying for abundance for you. 😊💕🙏🏻🇨🇦
?? Cut worms ?? I use toilet paper rolls tubes , cut in to 1/3 long rings . Where broccoli is to big to slip over plant . Cut the ring . So you can put around the stems. Kind of push into the ground. I save the toilet paper rolls all year. For seed starters and place around plants like cabbage, tomatoes, broccoli cause of cut worms. I'm not a good gardener, but that's a trick I've learned.
It's amazing how quickly your garden grew. My plants are not growing near as fast as yours
I'm guessing you have cut worms attacking your broccoli. Nematodes can help, or pyrethians. Or wrap plants with aluminum foil collars
In the past I have created a t-pee over tall vegetables that are prone to deer predation. In your case maybe one panel of agribond over each side of the panels and clamp or clothespin to the panel? I agree you should add some DE around the plants-that will take care of snails, ants, anything ground based that are disturbing your brocolli. It took me a long time to be willing to experiment in the garden. Love that you are willing to try transplanting the carrots to see what happens. Maybe they won't grow, maybe they'll be small salad carrots, maybe they'll spring back. Let us know? Blessings on your week!
That’s what I was thinking about the peas, put the agfabric on each side.
I'm happy you so great!!!!!! take care God bless you always....
awesome garden you really do have a green thumb.
Wrap stems with newspaper or cardboard and get garden cats. My first two suggestions. Blessings all.
Looks like cut worm on the broccoli. Try milky spore as it prevents grubs and Japanese beetles.
Is that damage from Cut worms??? Look like cut worm.
Take one of your broccoli plants to a nursery or county extension office and ask them what’s killing tem
Great progress, happy family & thanks for sharing! Blessings to all 🤗💜🇨🇦
GM!
BRI you have CUTWORMS eating your broccoli. I have them too. I seven dust, you could use DE if you do "organic".
That is my guess as well. Cutworms can be stopped by using a plastic collar at the soil line. You can make collars from plastic drinking straws, 2-3" long, split lengthwise to slip around the stems, push them down a little into the soil.. Cutworms will also attack tomato plants.
Maybe cut worms or slugs… maybe put aluminum foil around the stem
Shade cloth is where it is at. Here in Central Texas I had great greens all summer!
Good to know! I just bought some and put it on my lettuce and broccoli. I’m in SW Idaho, a high desert and we have HOT dry summers.
1st time on, you seem so kind, but wounded. i wonder what your story is? Anyway , u r a terrific mom and love your video
Your garden is beautiful! I double my garden every year and Im just enjoying growing food.
Thanks for the tip on the green onions!
Hi bri, I have had this issueI thought it was gnats eating at the stems of my baby brassica. I sprinkle cinnamon to stop it. But I also crushed egg shell incase it was slugs
I’ve never seen that either Bri. I wonder if it’s rodents? I doubt a cutworm could do that, they aren’t big enough to cut a stem that huge.
I could honestly watch you just work in your awesome garden and hear the birds twitter and sing for a long time. It's so peaceful and relaxing 👩🌾🥕🥬🐦🙂
Me too. She give so many helpful tips.
Cut worms cut all the way through. Looks like mice or something like that.
I had voles eat mine just like that. They also ate our potatoes.
